Nouns.....

HYE THERE....did you know what is noun????
Noun is a person,place or thing...That was the definition of noun that I can tell you right now....
Here are some example of person..
 TEACHER
WIZARD
Next are the example of place....
CABIN
SCHOOL
And the last one is a thing.....
BUTTERFLY
MOUSE
  Next I want to share about COMMON NOUNS and PROPER NOUNS...Nouns can be divided into two which are common and proper.

COMMON NOUNS is a noun that names any person,place or thing
PROPER NOUNS is a noun that names a PARTICULAR person,place or thing.

Here are some example of COMMON NOUNS....
CAT
BOOK
Next are some example for PROPER NOUNS......
WHITE HOUSE
PRESIDENT SYRIA
Next, Nouns can be divided into SINGULAR and PLURAL NOUNS....

A noun that names only one person,place or thing is called a singular noun..
A nouns that names more than one person,place or thing is called a plural noun..


Some example for PLURAL NOUN....
GIRLS
TRUCKS
ADD 'S' TO MOST SINGULAR NOUNS TO MAKE THEM PLURAL.
FOXES
DISHES
ADD 'ES' TO SINGULAR NOUN THAT ENDS WITH S,X,CH, OR SH.....
KEYS
TOYS
IF A NOUN ENDS WIT VOWEL OR 'Y' ADD 'S'...
(LADYIES) LADIES
(PUPPYIES )PUPPIES
IF A NOUN END WITH A CONSONANT AND  A 'Y',CHANGE THE 'Y' TO AND 'I' AND ADD 'ES'...
SHEEP
DEER
SOME NOUNS HAVE SPECIAL PLURAL FORMS.SINCE THIS WORDS FOLLOW NO SPECIAL PATTERN, YOU MUST LEARN THEM.....

Do you know what is SINGULAR POSSESSIVE NOUNS is....
Here....I want to share with you about it.One thing that you must remember about possessive pronouns is you must add an apostrophe and an 'S' to a singular noun to make it possessive.
Example, if you want to story about web...you can determine what web that you mention in your story such as spider's web...That was example for possessive noun..
When a plural noun ends with 'S' add an apostrophe.This is called PLURAL POSSESSIVE NOUNS.Some example are babies' strollers or students teacher.
But when a plural noun does not end with 'S' add an apostrophe and an 'S'...
The example is THE WOMAN'S EYES ARE BROWN or THE MICE'S FUR IS BLACK.
THAT'S IT FROM NOW...BYE...
